Here is a Pustulouse Phyliddia from the Big Island, Hawaii. The spots appear green without artificial light at depth.

Coming back from Xmas holidays on Alona beach/Bohol/Philippines.
Ended up shortly after 4 days, crossing the Bohol-Cebu channel on a small bangka early morning with waves wind and rain, fleeing from a tropical storm that could have us stranded 2-3 days on the island therefore having us miss our flight back home.

I was expecting for Okenia Nakamotoensis in Bohol, it took my diveguide only 5 minutes on the first dive to show me the first one (around 2cm large).




The day after we spotted another one but I was fitted with a fisheye wide angle. I was stiil able to focus on bigger Nembrothas, though so close the rhinophores were almost banging on my dome:

Nembrotha Lineolata


Nembrotha Chamberlaini



On the third day I had two others Nakamotoensis mating, and the correct lens too :

 
Just a technical question. I am discovering this beautiful post :kiss2:. If any of you has a Sony RX100 camera, what macro strenght does he uses? Thanks

Glad you found "Nudibranch Lovers"

I think a lot of the 'pro' looking shots on here are taken with SLR cameras. Not that you can't get great Nudi shots with a point and shoot and a lot of patience.

This sounds like a real adventure! The kind of stuff that makes dive travel so rewarding. We took a tiny banca from Malapascua to Cebu in good weather and that was exciting. Alona beach is one of my favorite dive spots, Bohol is a magical island IMHO.

When I was using a rx100, I used an Inon UCL-165 or two Inon UCL-165 stacked. If I had another one, I would probably go with the Nauticam SMC.
